... well, to some degree anyway.
It does this by essentially transforming the mouseover event to a intermediate click event. For example, if you have a link that has a popup menu displayed on
To me, the issue with Flash is all about playback experience. Adobe can't even get the player to be efficient and smooth under OS X on decent hardware, so having it on my iPhone sounds tortuous.
Dear Steve and Steve:
Seriously, this is beyond ridiculous:
* Anyone can receive e-mail that contains profanity and porn. Please remove MobileMail.app from everyone's iPhone.
* Anyone can access or stumble upon profanity, porn and more while web browsing. Please remove MobileSafari.app from everyone's iPhone.
* Anyone can download and purchase songs full of profanity and sexual references. Please remove the iTunes Music Store from everyone's iPhone.
Until you remove those three apps as well, it's obvious that you're full of iShit.
Shhhh! Don't tell anyone (especially the MPAA), but you can already "go to the movies" in Second Life -- there are a number of virtual movie theaters on the grid and they get their content from YouTube, private machines, or from a movie streaming service.
The popcorn is usually free but unfortunately, like in RealLife, you shouldn't expect the theater to be chatter-free when other people are there. Of course, you could just buy or create your own virtual television set and enjoy them in your own virtual home instead.
Though I doubt Linden Labs will be sponsoring any events around one of them any time soon, you may be able to get virtually employed by at least one of them if you were so inclined.
I'm curious. What about the Adobe Acrobat browser plugin that is installed with the reader? Doesn't it also support the same embedded JavaScript? I haven't yet found any clarification on this, but I am inclined to assume that it does.
If it does, it'd be trivial to use "hidden" embedded PDFs in a web page as an attack vector. And if the plugin doesn't share preferences with the stand-alone reader, turning it off in the reader won't do much good.
Does anyone know?
If someone WANTS to run under the platform of "unlimited trust", he should run as Independent. There's a reason why almost nobody gets elected as one.
No. Independents, third parties and other lesser candidates don't stand a chance at getting elected because:
Just a day or so ago, Cydia (the awesome package manager for jailbroken iPhones used by reportedly more than 2million iPhones) launched a new app store of its own.
There have always been paid apps for jailbroken phones, but usually they would require you to go to the developer's or another web site to purchase the app. Now however, it appears that not only can you write apps that have full access to the device and without censorship, you can also use the Cydia store for a seamless shopping experience.
The Wall Street Journal and others have more information.
Granted, this doesn't give you exposure in the App store and there are issues with dealing with jailbreaking your phone, but it does provide iPhone developers and users with a choice.
There's no money left to sit on. Which was the GPs point.
Government rarely, if ever, knows what "short-term" or "temporary" means.
I never said it wasn't normal legislative procedure.
The bill was not released to congress days and weeks beforehand.
I assume by "you guys" you mean Republicans, conservatives, Hooverites, right-wingers et al. To assume that I am one of those (or any part for that matter) when I am definitely not just proves your overwhelming bias against anything that doesn't fit in your world view.
Yes, there is a portion of the media that panders to the left. Just as there is a segment that panders to the right. A few examples of deviation from this norm doesn't mean they don't overall. And I'd hardly quote Rush Limbaugh as a paragon of reason. Yikes.
Lack of government? But of course someone who believes that government is the only answer (the most disheartening part of your reply) and who has such a blatant hate for the Republican party would say such a thing. If only you and everyone like you could channel that hate towards BOTH political parties that are driving our country into the ground
Government spending will not create demand. It will create bigger government, and at the expense of personal liberty.
... that the missing tempo deviations added life to a song.
It's not a bug, it's a feature!
There was no debate. As the Wall Street Journal (and numerous other publications) points out, a group of beurocrats with their own and their party's interests in mind sat down and negotiated the bill.
"The final terms of a stimulus plan will be hammered out by a conference among House and Senate leaders, who will bargain over how to reconcile competing Senate and House versions of the plan."
They chose a very appropriate word there. "Bargain." We no longer debate. We bargain.
As for the rest of congress -- Like I said, there was not a final draft of the bill available until less than 24 hours before the voting took place. And I didn't say this was limited to Republicans. I said "the whole of the house."
Regardless, even if every representative could have gotten a copy of the bill to review, you're being quite unrealistic to state that simply having staffers is enough to read, research and comprehend 1100 pages of law and all of the associated bills referenced within in less than 24 hours. Let alone debate it in any publicly visible forum.
The only so-called "debate" that you could possibly be inferring is the media's vague talking points on the bill. But even then the media spent most of it's time on biased opinion-presented-as-journalism nonsense. The leftist media praising the bill and calling the right idiots for questioning anything about it, and the right media playing along, focusing on the name calling and "those evil Democrats."
The reality is that the last thing any of the House and Senate leaders want is debate. Debate just gets in the way of "bypartisianship" laws chock full of goodies that can bragged about on the pulpit next election cycle. The economic downturn was simply a great opportunity to use FUD as an excuse to rush through billions in spending without review.
Cynical? Sure. But that is the state of things and anyone not blinded by party bias can see that.
And for what it's worth, stop playing and feeding the damn blame game. This isn't about Democrats vs Republicans. It's about our government out of control, government involvement being largely responsible for the mess we're in, and more government being far, far from an appropriate or effective solution.
Read the bill in its final form here:

Exactly.
Passing that 800B "stimulus" bill is more than enough reason to be outraged. Especially given the conditions under which it was pass: Less than 24 hours for the whole of the House to share and review (reportedly) only five copies of a partially handwritten bill that was over 1,000 pages long.
Nobody read it. And, like Bush before him, Obama used FUD to push it through.
There are two ways to write error-free programs; only the third one works.
